Yale V197 Jimmy Proof Deadlock

The Yale V197 is a heavy-duty single-cylinder deadlock designed for residential entry doors. Two hardened steel interlocking deadbolts engage the strike to resist forced entry. A 5-pin rim cylinder 1109E operates the lock from the outside with a key, while a 90-degree thumb turn controls the deadbolt from the inside. The sprayed bronze finish suits traditional hardware styles.

Fits doors 32 mm to 57 mm thick

This deadlock suits standard inward-swinging doors with a 60 mm backset and thicknesses between 32 mm and 57 mm. Builders fitting outswinging doors should look at the 197F model with a flat strike instead. The lock requires a surface-mounted installation rather than a mortised pocket. Renters or installers needing a double-cylinder function will need a different product.

60 mm backset determines fit

The 2-3/8 inch (60 mm) backset is the critical measurement for aligning the lock with existing door preparations. Verify this dimension before purchase, as a mismatched backset prevents installation without modifying the door. The package includes two keys for the brass-finished cylinder.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the V197 deadlock is operating correctly after installation?

Insert the key and rotate it to throw both hardened steel interlocking bolts fully into the strike; from inside turn the thumbturn 90 degrees and verify the bolts retract smoothly without binding.

Which components come with the V197 and what must I supply myself?

The lock includes the case, two hardened steel interlocking deadbolts, a 5-pin rim cylinder 1109E with two keys, a thumbturn, and standard strike; you must provide mounting screws and a drill bit suitable for a 2-3/8 inch backset.

When should I choose the V197 versus the 197F model?

Select the V197 for inswinging doors using the standard strike; choose the 197F only when the door swings outward and requires the flat strike.
